"As a writer, I am highly disappointed with this program. I found lots of grammatical and spelling errors throughout the readers, which makes them very poor examples for students to learn from."

"The program made teaching a child how to read easy."

"I began this program thinking it would be a reading program, but it is much more than that. It helps with reading, spelling, vocabulary, knowing the difference between similar words, and overall memory."

Homeschooling with Educational Podcasts
Headphone image
While your mp3 player may generally be used for listening to music, that's not all it's good for.

These days, one of the more promising creative educational formats is Podcasting, where you create (or just listen to) downloadable audio files with information, interviews, and more.

Our PURLs of Wisdom blog entry "Homeschooling with Educational Podcasts" provides you with resources that will demystify using podcasts as an educational tool, along with links to services offering FREE educational downloads.
